Chapter 59
Chapter 59
The NBA playoffs are still in full swing.
Last year's champion, the Boston Celtics, lost to the Magic led by Howard because of Garnett's injury.
Wang Xiao knew very well that the Magic were too young to resist the seasoned Lakers. The first finals of Howard's career would end with a bad experience, and he probably never dreamed of it. The only finals in his career.
How the playoffs are going has nothing to do with the Wizards, but there is something very important to the Wizards recently.
The lottery ceremony of the draft.
This season, the Wizards' record is the third in the league, of course, the last.
The bottom one in the Eastern Conference and the third bottom in the league. Their record is worse than that of the Wizards. In addition to the Thunder, which is only supported by Westbrook independently of Oden, there is also the Los Angeles Clippers.
In terms of lottery probability, the Thunder lead the way with a 25% probability of the No. 64.2 lottery and a [-]% probability of the top three.
Followed by the Clippers' 19.9% probability of the No. 55.8 pick and [-]% of the top three selection odds.
The third-ranked Wizards have a 13.8 percent probability of being the No. 42.6 pick, and the top three have a [-] percent probability.
Basically, if it wasn't for his poor character, the Wizards would get one of the top three picks no matter what.
In order to express his acceptance of the new head coach, the owner of the Wizards specially asked Wang Xiao to participate in the lottery ceremony.
It was the first time for Wang Xiao to participate in this kind of ceremony. Looking at the lottery box on the stage, he felt very novel.
After NBA Commissioner Stern made a speech, the lottery ceremony began.
The first to draw lots was the Oklahoma City Thunder with the worst record, and the son of the owner of the Thunder took the stage.
It could be seen that the boy was a little nervous. Under the leadership of his father, he walked all the way to the lottery box, and after fumbling in the box for a while, he took out a small ball.
Sitting under the stage, Wang Xiao immediately noticed that the child's father's face turned dark.
Sure enough, after receiving the ball, Stern took a look and said, "Congratulations to the Oklahoma City Thunder, they got the third overall pick."
It's still the third overall pick.
Wang Xiao was a little happy.
His appearance has changed history, the wings of the butterfly have been inflamed, and another time and space already has Durant and Westbrook at the same time. Although the Thunder did not make the playoffs, their record is not the bottom of the league. It can be said that the luck of getting the third overall pick and choosing James Harden is quite good.
But in this time and space, because the No. [-] pick Oden was injured, the Thunder had only one first-year pick, Westbrook, who had the worst record in the league. Unexpectedly, they still got the third overall pick. This is a bit unlucky.
The Clippers, who followed the second lottery draw, were all happy and crazy, thinking that the No. [-] pick was a sure thing.
But when the result came out, they couldn't laugh anymore.
"Congratulations to the Los Angeles Clippers for the second overall pick."
Second pick?
Wang Xiao was stunned.
The Thunder's third pick made Wang Xiao think that the butterfly effect brought about by his crossing was not that great, but the Clippers' second pick seemed to tell him that was not the case.
Originally, the No. 09 pick in [-] should belong to the Clippers, who used this draft pick to choose Blake Griffin, who has excellent physical fitness.
But now, the No. [-] pick has become the second pick
Wait~!Wang Xiao suddenly felt something was wrong.
Subconsciously turning his head to look at the side, the accompanying general manager Grunfeld was already breathing rapidly.
"king……"
He opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Stern began to say: "The representatives of the Washington Wizards are invited to draw lots."
Wang Xiao straightened his clothes and walked towards the stands calmly.
As he walked, Wang Xiao was thinking, is it possible for him to directly draw the No. [-] lottery?
When he walked onto the stage, and reached into the lottery box to grab a small ball and took it out, Wang Xiao couldn't help being happy.
"Congratulations to the Wizards of Washington for the No. 2009 pick in the [-] NBA Draft!"
When Stern took the ball from Wang Xiao and said this, he couldn't help staring at Wang Xiao for a long time.
When Chinese player Yao Ming entered the NBA and became the No. [-] pick in the draft, Stern can say a lot. He is very optimistic about the NBA's market in China.
But even he never imagined that one day there would be a Chinese basketball coach in the NBA!
He knew what happened two years ago, but he was also very angry at the time, because many people, including him, believed that Oden's winning the No. [-] pick was expected and would effectively boost the NBA's ratings. Wang Xiao screwed up everything.
But now it seems that Wang Xiao's choice is actually correct, his vision is better than the entire NBA...
"Maybe, he can really create a world here."
The Wizards won the No. [-] pick!Good luck with the new head coach!
After a season of nightmares, Washington Wizards fans can finally laugh.
Although 09 was not considered a big draft year, it is recognized that there are many players with great potential, such as Griffin with superb physical fitness, Tebbit with excellent talent, and the template for the draft is James' Tyreke Allen. Vince, the European golden boy Rubio who caused a lot of trouble for the US team in the Olympics, etc...
If the Wizards use this No. [-] pick to select a player with good potential, plus the comeback Arenas and the Big Three of Jamison Butler...
A wonderful and bright future awaits them!
Walking down from the stage with a faint smile on his face, Wang Xiao sat back in his seat.
He has already started thinking in his mind, how to maximize the value of this number one lottery...
Soon, his eyes were locked on the wave of Los Angeles Clippers.
At this time, the management of the Clippers looked ugly, even uglier than those of the Thunder.
The Clippers really want the No. [-] pick because they want Griffin.
Although the reputation is far less than that of Oden in 07, Griffin can definitely be regarded as a high-quality inside player in recent years. In the next two years, there will basically not be any outstanding big men in the draft. It seems that although it is good, the playing style is too rigid, and it is not suitable for eagerly attracting the attention of fans and transferring them from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Clippers.
"The Wizards shouldn't be interested in Griffin, right? After all, they have Jamison and Haywood, so there's no need to choose another big man?"
The Clippers couldn't help but whispered to his companion, but his tone was very uncertain.
Who can guarantee such a thing?Wizards power forward Jamison is 31 years old, he is about to pass his peak period, and he may be traded at any time.
"No! We must find a way to see if we can get the No. [-] pick from the Wizards!"
The Clippers who made such a decision didn't know that Wang Xiao, who had no interest in the No. [-] pick, also set his mind on them.
